Default !995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo

Our son has a 95 with 4.0 and auto, the Up Country and trailer towing
packages and BFG ATs. It has over 135,000 miles. A good part of the
time it was driven from Manhattan to Vermont each weekend for sking.
Parked outside at -20, lots of road salt and in the summer some off
road adventures and towing the jetski. For the last two years its been
in the Colorado mountains (ski country) with a weekly commute to the
Denver airport and parked outside.

After 11 years body rust is just starting in areas that were dented
etc. Usual costs for batteries, brakes, one fuel pump and lots of
routine oil changes (engine, trans, Xfr case, diffs). A few plastic
parts are held on by tyraps instead of the factory push fasteners.
Can't seem to kill it. Always had all the maintenance at intervals as
speced by the Jeep owners manual not the "quick" intervals by the
dealer.

The interval wiper module is a problem (a few bucks every few years).
